Work It Out! Video
Last year’s Spring Fling at Jefferson High School was a total disaster—and this year’s student committee doesn’t want it to happen again! But can the group put aside the past and work together constructively to create a successful dance? This video uses scenario analysis to model four key conflict resolution strategies: taking the person out of the problem; focusing on issues, not egos; being objective; and creating win-win solutions. Show your students that differences are a part of who we are—and that while we may not get along with each other all the time, we do have to find positive ways to work out our disagreements. A viewable/printable teacher’s guide is available at www.cambridgeeducational.com.

Work It Out! Posters
Students can’t agree? Then tell them to work it out—with the help of this six-piece poster set. It neatly summarizes the conflict resolution process and gives ample tips on how to implement it, step by step. Titles include "Conflict Can Be Creative," "Take the Person Out of the Problem," "Ask a Simple Question: ‘Why?’," "Create Win/Win Solutions," "Play Fair (Even If You Don’t Feel Like It)," and "Learn How to Listen."

Work It Out! Workbooks
The ten student editions of the Work It Out! workbook contain information, self-exploration questions, and group activities that reinforce the four key conflict resolution strategies modeled in the Work It Out! video. The teacher edition will help you integrate those questions and activities into the presentation and discussion of the video. Additional ten-packs of the student workbooks are available.
